""Someone once told me I can be as sad as I want just make sure I’m still doing things and that has changed the way I view everything. I’m like it’s fine that I’m sad right now but let me go be sad at hot yoga and be sad while I’m taking my vitamins and be sad while I’m learning ceramics and while I’m completing my tasks. This might sound depressing but for me it’s so elevating. Because I know in like December, for example, I will be able to look at how much I’ve expanded myself and it won’t matter that I was sad in August because sadness doesn’t stick. It’s what you do that shapes your life. And I kept doing things. And I shaped my life."

“In the end it doesn’t matter if you won or lost, it matters what you learned for next time. Because we always get faced with the same challenges again. And all we care about is if we’ll get through it this time, not how it turned out last time. “ Photo: (tag her)

“Recently I’ve had so much hope for the future. God I can’t wait to travel the world and try new food and go on adventures. There is so many concerts I have yet to go to and art galleries to admire. Mornings to wake up with the Suns warmth pouring through the window and nights to lay out on a blanket in the grass and watch the stars, wondering what’s all out there in the universe. Getting the keys to your first apartment and knowing what it’s like to be completely independent. Going to the farmers market on a Sunday morning and parks to walk through as the seasons start to change. There are books to lose yourself in and dreams to pursue. The list is endless.”
